best blues tones?

[horax]

Getting a silver sky....
I have a bassbreaker 15 combo...

What amp >1000.00 would get me to dial in to John Mayer TYPE of blues tones best?

 

[toothace]

An amp greater than $1000 for a Mayer type blues sound?? How about a J-MOD 100??

 

[jxe]

why not the j-mod 9000? sky’s the limit.

Whoops! Was in the phone and I hit the wrong icon. I want LESS than 1000.

A used Fender deluxe reverb and a Klone pedal should get you there nicely and be under budget.

Ceriatone HRM or ODS clone used?

As long as you don’t take the Deluxe’s volume over 7, I think you’ve nailed it! (Even if it wasn’t chasing Mayer tone, that would be an awesome setup. Put an EP Booster in there too and you’d have a 3 channel rig)

Two Channel H or Custom 50.

Hey, has anyone ever seen @sergiodeblanc play the blues, or, like blue guitars, does he not like those either?

I suspect, based on @sergiodeblanc 's eclectic musical (& fashion) tastes, that he does not normally play the blues. He probably can, but chooses not to.

He's a Chicago guy that hates the blues. Go figure. It's not just "blue" stuff though. He hates harmonicas, too.

 

[Boogie]

He's a Chicago guy...He hates harmonicas, too.

Now, whose fault is that? Toddler blues is not a personal fav genre of mine, either.

I'm not sure, exactly, whose fault it is. All I know is that when he said harmonica was the worst instrument ever invented that I HAD to get one for Paco! Cuz that's how I roll!

 

[jxe]

‘if you can do no good, at least do it without harmonica accompaniment.’

Right up my alley!

Ne too, buddy. Me too...

BTW, I believe the real problems stem from banjo ownership. They should be saved exclusively for zombie smashing...”Double-tap!”

you double tap with the banjo and finish it with a cuica

The blessed Gorilla combo amp is THE quintessential blues amp, and if you don't have one in your main rig you are missing out my friends and brethren.

As a more serious answer, I'm also siding with the Channel H as mentioned earlier in this thread.
